Rusin wound up missing six weeks with a left shoulder strain. He returns to a long relief role. Jul 27 - 4:00 PM

Rockies placed LHP Chris Rusin on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left shoulder.

The injury opens the door for Jorge De La Rosa to return to the starting rotation. It's poor timing as Rusin was coming off his best start of the season Wednesday against the Dodgers (6 IP, 3 H, 0 R). Shoulder injuries can be tricky so we wouldn't expect a quick recovery. Rusin owns a middling 4.12 ERA over 12 outings this year (seven starts). Jun 14 - 5:57 PM

Chris Rusin combined with four relievers on a shutout of the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Rusin allowed three hits over six innings before being taken out in a double-switch in the seventh. If the Rockies hadn't scored that inning, Rusin would have remained winless in seven starts this season. The Rockies, though, did take a 1-0 lead that the bullpen held on to from there. Rusin isn't any sort of option in fantasy leagues. Jun 9 - 1:34 AM

Chris Rusin was hit hard in Sunday's loss to the Giants, surrendering six runs on 11 hits over his five frames.

Rusin walked three and struck out three in the contest. The Giants got to him early and often in this one, scoring all six of their runs in the first four innings, including a solo homer by Denard Span. Now 1-3 on the season, Rusin will carry a 4.75 ERA and 1.51 WHIP into Friday's start against the Padres in San Diego. May 29 - 9:25 PM
